Who doesn’t love a little trash-talking before a match? The head coach of the Giants, Joe Judge, and the HC of the Washington Football Team (WFT), Ron Rivera, did just that. The New York Giants’ HC might have taken things a bit too far while calling out Ron Rivera. 

The WFT HC has given Joe a crisp response. Things have gotten a bit heated up between both sides. The Week 18 game between the two would be interesting to watch. Which head coach will reign supreme? Who will be able to back up his words? Or will someone give a response with actions over words?
